Sing Street to the stage direct from its sold out engagement at New York Theatre Workshop.
Dublin, 1982. Everyone is out of work. Thousands are seeking bluer skies across the Irish Sea. Sixteen-year-old Conor and his schoolmates turn to music to escape troubles at home and impress a mysterious girl. With a score that embraces the new wave sounds of the era,
Sing Street celebrates the thrill of first love and the power of music.
